Answer:
A. 5x+6
Step-by-step explanation:
-
(9x-18)+8x
-3x+6+8x (multiply across the -1/3)
5x+6 (combine 8x and -3x)
Assuming that the cost per minute is the same for both months and the plan fee is the same, you can use y=mx+b for this
y is the cost of the phone plan, x is the cost per minute and b is the start cost.
so 19.41=25x+b for the first month
and 45.65=380x+b for the second month
solve both for b you get:
19.41-25x=b and 45.65-380x=b. from this we get
19.41-25x=45.65-380x
solve for x
328x=26.24 and x=0.08
this means the cost per minute is 0.08c/min (answer A)
rewrite the equation to calculate b, and where this time, the x is the number of minutes talked.
y=0.08x+b and plug in one of the two months
45.65=0.08 * 380 + b
Solve for b and b is 15.25
so the final equation is
y=0.08x+15.25 (answer B)
This is your perfect answer
